McCulley’s husband coaches Glenvar High School junior varsity softball. A Floyd County sheriff’s deputy’s report says McCulley took the field after a loss to Floyd County High School and mooned people in the stands.

McCulley “stood on or close to the pitcher's mound and pulled down her pants with her right hand to expose her right butt cheek,” said a statement from Floyd County Sheriff’s Deputy G.H. Scott.

There were reportedly children in the stands.

McCulley said she thought her husband “was going to be attacked so she was trying to get the attention off of him,” Scott wrote.

Prosecutor Eric Branscom says McCulley has written an apology and will perform community service. Branscom says McCulley will likely have the charge dismissed or receive a suspended sentence at a February administrative hearing.
